      I don't remember being forced to fill these in last time I tried to set up Cloudron by installing Ubuntu server manually. I'm being asked by Ubuntu to fill in my server name, username, and password before I can proceed with the installation. What can I use in here that won't cause an issue for Cloudron?

        I assume this "user" is what I can use to SSH into the server once Cloudron is set up. Then, Cloudron will create its own user so it shouldn't cause any issues. If not, then someone please correct me if I'm wrong!

        Edit: ^ is exactly the case.

          Guys, don't do what I did and set the password to 70 characters long. You'll hit the login timeout before you can type the whole thing 😫

            @girish This blog post needs updating. In the "Enable Dynamic DNS" it tells us to go to "Domains" but that option has moved to "Network". Thanks!

              @humptydumpty thanks for the hint. I have update the blog post accordingly.

              Regarding the Ubuntu installation, you can already set the server name to the intended dashboard domain and for the username, just use ubuntu or anything besides cloudron-* or yellowtent, to avoid conflict and confusion later.
